Summary/Abstract: The themes ‘human rights and religions’ in general and ‘human rights and Islam’ in particular are without a doubt among the most complex and problematic themes of our time. From a general perspective, the difficulty of these themes is connected with the origin of human rights, which was characterised in Europe by the long resistance of Christian churches to the idea of human rights (Bielefeldt,1999, 14). This historical development of human right led in the European context to the establishment of these rights being viewed by a considerable portion of society as a sign of the triumph of the Enlightenment over Institutionalised religion and is still viewed that way to a certain extent.
